The forum server is not emailing me when replies are made to this thread…

I'm in South Florida it's all high-theft; there are only three deputies assigned to the 80 sq. mi. area I live, so, the orange chain is my low-tech redneck security solution.

Serenity's sibling, whom I've dubbed "Firefly" got new shoes:

Materials:

Now, I've done it...

I guess the question now is, do I extend the fenders, or do I replace the axle?

Granted, with the track of my trailer this wide now, it will be more surefooted then a billygoat wearing crampons. But, not extending the fenders will just make it look clownshoes stupid.

This means I need to find a good shop around West Palm Beach. Anyone have suggestions?

 

[parapyropig]

I guess this means I can nearly tub-out the bed, too... :wings:

Where did you get those adapters?

Why extend fenders? That is the "in look" for man children these days.

The perfect bro-Dozer accessory.

 

[parapyropig]

Crap. Now I have to go look it up. Stand by...

Naked tires are illegal in some states.

Besides, I think it rather impolite to chuck mud & rocks at my trail brethren.

You can get a new axle with brakes from Redneck (3" dia. , 5,000 lb, electric brakes) for about $350. Get 6 x 5.5 pattern and use regular spidertrax.
